Newbie need help for basic apps (show markers from array point)

Hi,

I'm a newbie in using ArcGis API for Flex. It seem very powerfull, so powerfull that I don't know how to do basic stuff.
Say, I have an arraycollection with objects inside (lattitude,longitude,customer name, some text....)

I want to add a marker (PictureMarkerSymbol) for every object in my arraycollection and show a popup (name of customer) on a mouse clic.

I saw examples using RSS (xml file) as source, my needs is an arraycollection...

Thank in advance for your reply

Regards
Fred

Please take a look at the LocateWidget that comes with the FlexViewer application. It should give you some ideas as to
how you can locate the the x,y(lat long) on the map and when you click on the point , you can attach a tooltip or an infowindow to the point to show the attributes that you are interested to see. Possibly you can extend this idea to an array of objects in your collection.
